How Does a Cash Offer on Your Home Work?

If you have ever wondered whether you could sell your home without repairs, showings or months of waiting, a cash offer is the option people are usually talking about. Here is how it works, in plain language.

What a Cash Offer Is

A cash offer comes from a buyer who has the funds available and does not need a mortgage to purchase your home. Because there is no lender involved, there is no loan approval to wait on and usually no appraisal required by a bank. That removes two of the most common reasons a traditional sale gets delayed or falls apart.

The Steps

1. You share the basics. The address, the condition of the home and the timeline you have in mind.
2. We request offers. We present your home to cash buyers and bring back the offers we receive.
3. You compare. We put each cash offer next to an honest estimate of what your home could net if it were listed on the open market.
4. You choose. Accept an offer, list traditionally, or wait. The decision is always yours.

What You Usually Skip

• Repairs, painting and staging, since many cash buyers purchase as-is
• Open houses and repeated showings
• Waiting on a buyer's financing

What to Know Before You Decide

Convenience has a price. Cash offers often come in below what a well-prepared home could sell for on the open market, and terms and fees vary from one buyer to the next. Not every property will receive an offer. That is why we review every number with you before you sign anything, so you can see exactly what you would walk away with either way.
